Seeing this, everyone fell silent all of a sudden, and then moved into action again in a hurry.

After returning to Granny Yula's cellar, Yang Yuan heard the faint sound of horseshoes in the distance.

It's just that the sound of horseshoes this time seems a little different from last time.

After the women were all hidden, some of the villagers went out tremblingly to see who it was.

Then someone ran back from the outside and said to the villagers: "It's the cavalry, it's the lord's garrison army coming!"

It turned out that the few people who passed by Alisa and the others the night before still insisted on reporting the news to the lord.And the lord, whom they placed high hopes on, issued an order after the lawsuit to come and purify the small village.

Seeing the heavily armed knights surrounding the small village, the people in the village all showed uneasy expressions.Seeing this, a thin old man finally got up his courage and walked over, and said humbly to the leading knight: "My lord, do you know what is the important matter for you to come here? We can help you with the important matter." I'm busy, please-"

But before he could finish speaking, the knight whose face was covered by the helmet had an ominous red cast on the helmet by the morning light.

Then he suddenly waved his hand down, and an arrow pierced through the village chief's chest, bringing out a cloud of blood.With that humble expression, the village head suddenly fell backwards.

Seeing this, the villagers fled back in horror, and the army didn't care how they behaved.But then a white-robed man who was surrounded by soldiers came out. He stood there expressionless and scanned the surroundings of the village.Then he took out a handful of unknown powder from his pocket, sprinkled it on the ground, and muttered a spell to the whole village.

It didn't take long for Yang Yuan to hear a bang faintly in the distance.He and Alisa hid in the cellar together, not knowing what happened.But the villagers outside all showed despair at this time.

A three-meter-thick stone wall slowly rose around the village, and the dust it brought up gradually rose as the stone wall rose, and even the sun above their heads seemed to be blocked.

The villagers stood silently not far away, looking at the heavily armed knights in front of them.A few older women couldn't help covering their mouths and weeping softly.

People knew very well what would happen when the wall closed their villages completely.

Seeing this, a young man finally plucked up the courage to rush out and shouted at the knights: "Don't isolate us! The plague has already—"

This time, what greeted him was no longer an arrow, but a rain of arrows.The young man was shot by several arrows and fell to the ground. He heard the cries of relatives in his ears. He turned his head and looked at the archers who had set up arrows again, his eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment.But before the emotion could accumulate, it slowly dissipated in those dull eyes.

And those knights seemed to be a little impatient with the actions of the man in white robes, or that was the order they received.

The rain of arrows did not stop because the young man fell, and the soldiers behind the shooters began to take out rags and kerosene.

Until the sky before the eyes of the villagers is only a circle, and then they are completely isolated in this small space.

Worse things are yet to come.

When the stone wall surrounding the entire village finally stopped rising, a rain of fire flew into the outside of the wall. Those rockets hit the roof, the haystacks, and even the innocent villagers, and the miserable screams were heard instantly. .People fled back in horror, even the thin dogs couldn't maintain their usual gentleness, they followed closely behind their masters and ran for their lives.

But where can they hide?In an instant, the entire enclosure became a sea of ​​flames.

"What's going on? What happened outside?" The petite girl asked anxiously.

Alisa stood solemnly behind the cellars, turned her head and looked at the girls who were following behind her, who looked extremely tired at this time, and finally hesitated to open the cellar door.

Granny Yula, who was dragged by a young boy and stumbled backwards, was closely followed by the black dog that had been with her for more than ten years. The fire was burning behind her, destroying the home she had stayed in for most of her life overnight. completely destroyed in between.

Then she was dragged by the young man and rushed into her home, opened the cellar and walked in.

At this time, she didn't have the energy to explain to Yang Yuan and the others. When the villagers came in one by one, she directed them to pry up the floor of her cellar quickly, and then a one-meter-wide hole appeared in front of people.

Then people jumped in after Granny Yura.

Seeing this, Yang Yuan and the others hesitated for a while and walked in together.

Then he discovered that the cellar was actually connected to a deep tunnel.Pulled by Alisa, Yang Yuan walked quickly in the darkness. When the eyes lit up again, they had already reached an inconspicuous mountain depression.

Finally walking out of the darkness, everyone couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.But when they thought that their home had been destroyed in the sea of ​​fire, many people couldn't help crying secretly.

"Don't cry! It's good that we can save our lives," Granny Yula said with a rare expression on her face. "Everyone cheer up, we have nothing now. If we don't work hard, we will have nothing but what we have lost." Like those relatives, their lives were lost in vain."

Granny Yula seemed to have high prestige among the villagers. When she spoke, everyone fell silent. Even though some people's eyes were still red, they still held back their tears.

Seeing this, Yang Yuan exchanged glances with Alyssa, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.But as long as there are still lives, they still have hope after all, and they are luckier than those who lost their lives in the sea of ​​fire.

But they were clearly too happy.

The dogs that escaped with them all let out a low whine at this time to remind them of the enemy's approach.

Everyone immediately became vigilant.

Although they still couldn't figure out why they ran so far, they were still discovered.But now is not the time to think about it.

A middle-aged man said to Granny Yula: "You take the women and children and go first, and I will stay here with a few men."

Granny Yula turned her head and gave him a solemn look, thought about it, and nodded in agreement.

A few older men took the initiative to stay, and the young people were unwilling to back down, but this was not the time for them to be willful.

In the end, more than a dozen elderly and middle-aged men stayed where they were, and Granny Yula led the rest to another cave entrance in the col.

Yang Yuan didn't really understand why they wanted to keep a group of people. After all, these people would not be the opponents of the robbers outside - he still thought that the group of people who came were robbers.

However, this matter does not allow him to discuss it.

But before leaving, he turned his head and glanced at the men.But found that their expressions were very calm.Even the previous panic is gone.One of the very old people looked at them leaning on a cane, saw him looking back, and gave him a comforting smile.

There was nothing special about that smile, but it made Yang Yuan's eyes turn red.

He turned his head and took a deep breath.In the end, he followed in the footsteps of others and left.

The cave they are in extends in all directions, and there are many small holes and tunnels for them to walk in.

But Granny Yula ordered everyone to follow her closely, "You are not allowed to go anywhere else. The roads inside are very complicated, and many of them are dead ends. If you get separated, we will not be able to find you. We will not be able to get out when the time comes. You can only die here."

As it got deeper and deeper, the surroundings returned to darkness again.

The crowd did not prepare torches in a hurry. Fortunately, all the dogs in the village followed, and Granny Yula's dog seemed to be very smart and familiar with the terrain, leading them silently in the dark.

Then everyone came to a slightly larger cave. Granny Yula gasped and said to them: "Let's rest here now. We will go out after they leave."

It turned out that there was no so-called passage in this mountain wall at all, it was just a refuge for them.Fortunately, the road inside is complicated, even if those people catch up, they may not be able to find them.It's just that Yang Yuan was very worried that the other party would attack with fire again, and maybe they would be suffocated to death in this cave.

Everyone sat silently in the dark cave. At this time, there were no more people crying. People seemed to be completely numb because of losing their loved ones again and again.Even the children, under the protection and guidance of their parents, tightly covered their mouths and did not make a sound.

But in such extreme silence, Yang Yuan keenly caught the subtle screams coming from a distance.Such screams were much more obvious than those in the village at that time, which were covered up by the crackling of burning buildings.In this silent environment, it rang clearly in Yang Yuan's ears.

Yang Yuan couldn't help but tremble, at this moment his brain started to ache.He stared at the cave, clenched his fists tightly.

After a long time, the screams that ordinary people could not hear stopped, but the enemy's pursuit did not end.

Then the sound of horse crowing sounded, getting closer and closer.

Yang Yuan could even smell the faint smell of fireworks from burning branches.

This kind of smell irritated Yang Yuan's nose repeatedly, making him have a splitting headache.He felt that the nerves in his brain seemed to use his brain as a stage, dancing happily one by one, trying to collapse his brain.

When he couldn't bear the pain anymore and wanted to scream out, there was a sudden bang in his head, like an egg bursting, or a seed sprouting.

After the pain was gone, Yang Yuan calmed down again.He silently looked at the darkness in front of him, suddenly raised his hand, and grabbed the black dog beside Granny Yula.
